How to Stop the Global Economy from Plunging into A depression

It is a bit surprising that the world economy is in recession. By the way, it is informed by the IMF as increasing less than 2% a year. Global depression, it is characterized by fall out in potential GDP exceeding 10% more than one major economy and ending for one or two or more. This specter a lot of governments are trying to stave off. The US and

Europe are moving faster and throwing the best rescores on it than they have done in the past to respond to the global financial crisis. The question, are they going to succeed? The answer can find better by knowing what is stand between the present recession and more catastrophic depression.

BCM Review

Due to this pandemic, people are fearful or unable to go out and spend. As a conscience, product demands are very low, which is why a lot of businesses are in jeopardy, their revenues are taking last breath. Many companies will have no option to accept fired their employees or even shut down.

The present situation can turn into depression If the business gets shut down and layoffs spread unchecked, changing a temporary dip into a complete fall down of demand that disrupts the economy. In such cases, companies and employees both will suffer drastically.

At the time government must make effective policies to support the business sector so that start-ups can gradually come on the right track. They have to start with the rollover of loans, suspension of payments of interest, rent and other fees and cutting taxes.

The most important thing, the government need to find a way to help a portion of salaries so that companies don’t have to ask their worker to leave their job. It could break the link between the beginning fall out in demand and a highly destructive economy-wide crash. Focusing only on small businesses may create problems because big organizations are key customers for a lot of small companies, if the big business goes down, small businesses will shut down with them. At the time, big organizations and small start-ups need help equally.

Time is passing out and many people’s jobs are in danger. On March 26, 2020, The US Department of Labor reported that 3.28 million have lost their jobs. As per the European trade Union, one million people have lost their job due to this pandemic.

No doubt today governments are throwing a big amount of money, but the result will depend upon how, when and where the money is spent. Once again helping small and large start-ups are the only way to get rid of the recession.
